Defective iPhone charging cable

Three iPhone charging cables (a misnomer because cord is too thin and bends and breaks connection) I have owned and paid too much for have only lasted an average of a year or less! Why? How to get a warranty, a free replacement, or recommended better product and where available?

iPhone 12 mini, iOS 17

Use a Braided Cable:
